So far China is batting a thousand this week. Earlier in the week they banned hidden car door handles for safety. Now they're banning investment in a neo fascist society.
If only they didn’t violently abuse and oppress gay and trans people. 😞
Maybe we should sell oil based on the yuan
They also executed some billionaires and pedophiles too. Nature is healing…
They can't invest in the USA either?
What do you mean they can't invest in the USA? China I believe is one of the biggest debt holders of the United States. They have considered selling off some of that debt to further weaken the dollar, which I wouldn't blame them considering everyone is at this point.
Sorry, I was making a gallows humor joke.
